We all know Mycroft Holmes. The Ice-cold, elder Holmes, who frowns upon sentiment.
One day, Mycroft is just minding his own business- getting on with his daily life. The next- his whole world has been turned upside down. It turns out an old flame of his, from a few years ago, had a daughter.
How will Mycroft react when his 3-year-old daughter is placed in his care after her mother dies in a car crash? Will the Ice-King grow a heart? How will Sherlock take to his new niece? What adventures will the 3 Holmes go on together?
How will Lily change the Holmes family?
~Disclaimer~
I don't own any of the Sherlock Charcters. Those rights go to Sherlock BBC
The only things I own are the character of Lily May Holmes; the Cover; and the Plot.
I had a bit of inspiration, for the way I write the characters, from: @LollyScotch's 'Sherlock, Dinosaurs' ; @FOREVER_SHERLOCKED's 'The Adventure Began at Holmes' ; and @HarrietSwan98's 'Sherlock's Heart. They are all amazing stories; and I 110% recommend! :)
Enjoy :)
(if you have any ideas or cover designs, just comment them or message me; I don't have that strict a plot for this story just yet- just a few key points. I will credit any ideas/covers I use!)

The American Fire that Melted the Ice Man (Mycroft Holmes x OC - BBC Sherlock)
What could bring together an American working for Scotland Yard and a man in a 'minor position' in the British government? What might melt the Ice Man, and what could strike fear into the heart of he who has faced down terrorists and negotiated with countless governments? Perhaps, in the end, caring -does- have its advantages. *This is lots of fluff, add in some sass, and a dash of intrigue and adventure. **I'm an American, and I apologize in advance if I get some British bits and pieces wrong. Also, this is fan fiction, so except a dash of OOC and AU because that's what makes fanfic fun. :) ***My original characters and the plot are mine, The Holmes brothers and their family and friends sadly don't belong to me.
